A currently-defunct newspaper that move in the nineteenth century was known as The Mississippian, & was published within Jackson, Mississippi.

A Mississippian is a geologic (sub)period lasting from about 360 million years prior to a present (BP) to 325 million years BP. When using virtually all more geological periods, a rock beds that define a time come swell identified, however the precise run & prevent dates come uncertain by two or three million years. Around North America, where a interval consists primarily of marine limestones, it is treated as a good-fledged geological time between a Devonian and the Pennsylvanian. Around Europe, a Mississippian & Pennsylvanian come of these additional-or even-less continuous sequence of lowl& continental deposits and come lumped together when a Carboniferous period.

A Mississippian is thus-known as because rocks from either this age come contaminated in the Mississippi River valley.

Refer to the Carboniferous period article for informatiin on faunal stages, climate, etc.
